About the Author:
Wilfred Santiago was born in Ponce, Puerto Rico. He now lives in Chicago.
Review:
“Santiago’s graphic novel captures the talent of Clemente the baseball player while also showcasing and illuminating the many simple and human qualities of the man that forged him into an honest and authentic hero. 21's complex yet accessible narrative and profound artwork make it a swift and affecting experience...”
- Kyle Davis, Call to the Pen
“It’s not just the subject matter that’s a winner here. Santiago has a knack for simplicity in his storytelling approach, and in a medium that’s often beset by needless complexity, that’s a rare gift.”
- Tim Reinert, Four Colours & the Truth
